CBD Beauty and Skincare

Everyone is different and we all have different skin types. Whatever your age, whether you suffer from oily skin, dry skin, redness, breakouts, or sensitivity, CBD can help. Let’s take a look at the different skin types CBD works for and why.

Normal Skin

Normal skin is basically another way of saying well-balanced skin. That is, skin with minimal breakouts, good blood circulation, quick recovery from scarring or other damage, and no problems with sensitivity. CBD helps keep normal, relatively trouble-free skin just that – trouble free!

Dry Skin

If you struggle with dry skin, you are not alone. Many people struggle with skin problems that are ultimately caused by dryness. As we age, the body’s ability to stay moisturised and supply water to the deepest layers of skin starts to reduce. This is why maintaining a regular skincare routine is so important. CBD helps keep skin hydrated for longer so that those common dry skin areas are kept hydrated and supple.

Oily Skin

Oily skin is the result of an overproduction of a substance called sebum. This substance is secreted by the glans in your skin and too much of it can clog pores, leading to breakouts, inflammation, redness, and acne. There are many reasons why some people struggle with overproduction of sebum, from medications and stress, to hormonal changes and genetics.

CBD works by reducing the skin’s production of sebum and evening out the fluctuation of hormones in the body. This helps keep the skin healthy by reducing the underlying cause of breakouts and blemishes.

Combination Skin

It is very possible you do not fall into any of the categories above and instead you have a combination of some or all those mentioned. Combination skin types often experience breakouts along the T-zone on the forehead and around the nose or chin, while the sides of the face remain dry.

While this is perfectly natural, it can be uncomfortable and frustrating to deal with. What’s more, it can make finding the right skin care products difficult. Thankfully, CBD helps combat common issues with all skin types. Through regular use, CBD can help to rebalance the oil production in your skin while also keeping it moisturised to prevent dryness. CBD smooths the skin tone by dealing with the root cause of the issue so that you can enjoy blemish-free and radiant skin.

Reduces Signs of Ageing

As you age, it is only natural for your skin to start show signs you are getting older. These can vary from person to person but generally include wrinkles, reddening skin tone, and skin dullness. There are many products out there which claim to help reduce the signs of aging, but none are quite as effective as CBD.

CBD products, particularly CBD oil, help keep your skin hydrated and healthy. The antioxidant properties in CBD oil help reduce those pesky signs of aging, while the Omega 6 and Omega 3 help to stimulate the production of collagen, helping your skin heal and hydrate faster.

Relieves Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a painful autoimmune disease that accelerates the life cycle of skin cells, causing the skin to form scales and red spots. Those who struggle with Psoriasis often feel very self-conscious about the condition and find it very painful.

CBD products help Psoriasis sufferers to not only manage their condition but to also alleviate many of the symptoms. CBD works with the body to reduce inflammation and soothe the pain caused by Psoriasis, providing many with relief.

Manage Eczema

Eczema is a common skin condition found in both children and adults. It is often extremely itchy, making day-to-day life challenging and uncomfortable for many. If you struggle with eczema, you might be embarrassed and even find yourself avoiding certain activities, such as swimming, because you’re worried about exposing the affected areas of your skin to others.

Eczema causes the skin to crack and turn red, itchy and inflamed. It is extremely common, however, there is still no permanent cure for the condition. For those struggling with eczema, CBD oil can provide some much-needed relief. CBD oil reduces the sore inflammation and helps prevent new developments of eczema over time.

Cures Acne

 Acne is caused when dead skin cells, excess oil, dirt, and other pollutants clog the pores. After the pores have become blocked, the bacteria multiply leading to inflammation and acne. For some sufferers, it can be particularly painful.

To manage the symptoms of acne, it is important to clean the skin of bacteria every day – simply follow our skincare routine above. This keeps the skin clean, by reducing the bacteria on the surface of the skin, preventing more breakouts.

Using CBD oil to cure acne is extremely beneficial. CBD has anti-inflammatory properties that help inhibit oil production and maintain balanced pH levels, resulting in even, blemish-free skin. CBD helps strengthen the body’s natural healing properties to trigger faster results. Unlike prescription medications, CBD oil allows your skin to heal naturally by targeting only the problem areas – and all without drying or irritating your skin.

Manage Dry Skin

Keeping skin moisturised often drops down our list of priorities on any given day. However, it is one of the best ways we can fight against aging and keep skin looking healthy. If you suffer with particularly dry skin, it can be tempting to over-moisturise. However, this merely blocks the pores further, leading to an increase in breakouts.

CBD oil provides the perfect balance of skin soothing properties and natural nutrients your body needs to achieve skin which is nourished from the inside out. The benefit of using CBD oil is that it doesn’t just deal with the surface issue, but it also helps regulate the body’s natural production of oil. If you are suffering from dry skin and you feel like you’ve tried everything, try our CBD oil products and revitalise your skin for good.

Atopic Dermatitis

Dermatitis is an inflammatory skin disease. It occurs most commonly in children, with around 10% of children being affected under the age of 6. Dermatitis is far more common in the colder months and is characterised by itchy red rashes. If you have Dermatitis and you visit your doctor, they will often prescribe topical treatments such as corticosteroid creams. While these are often helpful for relieving the symptoms, they don’t cure the problem and sufferers often find it comes back after a time.

CBD has an anti-inflammatory effect on the skin and is ideal for use on skin problems such as Atopic Dermatitis. Our skin has its own endocannabinoid system which, when used as an ointment, CBD binds itself onto directly. This means the problem is targeted quickly and effectively. The results are fast-acting, helping to calm the skin and restore its natural balance.
